Pulse APM
Pulse – Application Heartbeat Monitor Pulse is a new library I wrote in a weekend because I couldn’t find anything out there which performs this simple service. And I was tired of getting calls from GoGet on my day off (from my … Continue reading
Cutlass – Cut Less!
While re-building my house I became obsessed with getting efficiency out of the timber 10materials I was using when planning cutting lists.

Brain control interfaces (BCI)
Something I’ve been keeping an eye on lately is brain control interfaces i.e. devices which let you control things with your mind. There seems to be a sudden flurry of activity this year in this area with a small handful … Continue reading
MOTIf – online tests for language impairment

Hello world!
Welcome to SciPilot. I promised myself 2009 was going to be the year of finishing things, so this site is partly dedicated to that cause. I have so many half-finished projects lying around that they’re starting to clutter my brain. … Continue reading
